Dia dos Namorados

Dia dos Namorados aka Valentines Day in Brazil. It was fun filled evening shooting all the happy couple that were in love. I had a great time interacting with all of them as one by one they came through the  line to have their portraits taken. May all the young couples who were recently married have many wonderful years ahead of them and be bless with many beautiful children. Amen.  

Mass Wedding

And don't forget to KEEP you vows!!

The happy  couple Eduardo & Izabella

Here in Brazil, they have a tradition that once a year they'll have a mass wedding in a public arena with over one hundred couples getting married in the same night for all to see. It was like going to a ball game with people sitting in the stands while there love ones tied the knot. Vendor were selling beer, popcorn, roasted corn and cotton candy while these couples exchanged vows.
